Goal Scorers - Diego Costa(45+7) and Gary Cahill(81)

Diego Costa scored on his return to the Chelsea team as they beat Hull City to move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League.

The Spain striker missed last weekend's 3-0 win over champions Leicester, citing a back injury after a disagreement with a fitness coach, amid reports of Chinese Super League interest.

But the Blues' top scorer - cheered throughout the game by home fans - returned against struggling Hull and had an early impact, sending an effort from 20 yards fizzing just wide after only 10 seconds.

He got the opening goal when he converted Victor Moses' low cross from eight yards out in the seventh minute of first-half injury time.

• Only Ryan Giggs (162) and Frank Lampard (102) have provided more Premier League assists than Cesc Fabregas (101, same as Wayne Rooney).
• In his 100th Chelsea game, Diego Costa scored his 52nd goal for the club.
• Costa's strike was the latest first-half goal in the Premier League since exact times have been recorded by Opta (2006-07 - 51:35).
• The Spain striker has scored in all four of his Premier League games against Hull City.
• This is the fourth time a team have had 55 or more points after 22 Premier League games - and Chelsea have now done so three times (also 2004-05 and 2005-06).
• Hull have now gone 20 Premier League games without a clean sheet since beating Swansea 2-0 back in August.
• The Blues have now won 1,002 Premier League points at home, becoming the third club to reach four figures in the competition (Manchester United 1,116 and Arsenal 1,019).
• Antonio Conte has the same number of points from his first 22 Premier League games that Jose Mourinho had in his (55)
